I know of patients I have had who died several years after I left that practice. Should I be sued for malpractice?
Do you also denounce the Romney ad mentioned in post#19 that is a complete lie?

You will not get an answer. I posted the same article twice yesterday. Not one response.

WHO CARES!! I don't even know why Obama or Romney are running ads!

You all know it is the truth - everyone knows right now who they are going to vote for. No political ad is going to change anyone's mind about anything.

There are rabid Obama supporters out there who think he is part of the second coming. It would not matter WHAT he did or what he thinks or even what he plans. To those folks, he is a modern-day Moses and they will vote for him regardless.

And as for folks voting for Romney, a big bunch of them would vote for WHOMEVER is running against Obama. It wouldn't matter who it was. The rest like Mitt and want to see him in office.

Everyone already knows who they are going to vote for so I don't get why these political ads are even being run - just a big ole waste of money!

Another day and another LIE exposed in this Obama PAC ad.....

The man in the ad says that when he lost his job at the steel plant, he lost his health care. He SPECIFICALLY goes on to say his FAMILY lost it's health care.

But.....

CNN spoke to Joe Soptic, and found out that when he lost his GST job, his wife still was working and carried her own health insurance.

Absolutely. I think most if not all voters have made up their mind. Let's get the election over with!

The amount of money being spent by all sources is obscene. Take that money and donate it to a good cause. One which will benefit people more than television networks.

I read the Liberal Washington Posts "reasoning" for calling it a lie. And as always, I read it in complete disbelief at the extent to which they will carry water for Obama.

They even say that the order smells very fishy and then turn around and say Romney's ad lies.

They use as an example of a "lie" Romney saying that Obama's order guts the work for welfare standard.

Then they say:

Quote:
Conservatives may have legitimate concerns about the process in which the administration has approached this issue, or its legal reasoning, but that does not excuse the Romney campaign from charging that there is an “Obama plan” to weaken the law and issue welfare checks to people who do not work.
The ENTIRE change is meant to weaken the welfare law!!! It CERTAINLY isn't to make it HARDER!!

Please don't quite your day job and get involved with political campaigns!!

THIS is the time when MOST people actually begin to pay attention.....just because YOU are active enough and post on political forums doesn't mean the large sector of the electorate that only cares about what the Kardashians are wearing today do.

That's why Obama lets Romney speak for himself.

The man lost his job and health insurance. Because these people no longer could afford health insurance, his wife did not seek timely medical help for her symptoms ultimately leading to her untimely death.

In my practice, I have seen this MANY times. People lost their health insurance and were unable to afford medical care for ensuing cancers. They arrive for medical treatment when the pain becomes unbearable and it is too late to save them.
